Having said that you cant put a price on your mental health, so change what you can to preserve it. That may mean walking around with your eyes open so to speak looking for other work, or if possible orchestrating it so that it come to a head where you work. Either way your mental health is paramount so look after number one, everything else is optional.

I am "working" on finding something else. Cannot afford any other option literally financially or because even though it is large the industry I work in is small if you understand. My spouse and my best friend are keeping an eye on ME too. My best friend is the ONLY one at work that knows I am bipolar and is helping my spouse to keep an eye out for me getting too far too either high or low, especially since they both know how very much I like the high. I have been clean and sober since 06Apr1988, besides alcohol, my drugs of choice were anything that sped me up, still like that feeling clearly.

Thank you!!!!!!!
